The Republic orders the army. The army comes. Bam-bam. Makes sense. Obi Wan pretends to be there to review the troops because he's hunting Jengo. It makes simpler sense this way-- the mystery is simple: who is trying to kill Padme?
By the way -- who is trying to kill Padme? Who hired Jengo to get her? Palpatine - right?

No, Dooku has still hired Jango to assassinate Padme in order to get Viceroy Gunray signed on to the treaty. That hasn't changed from the original film.
